Hey yall, I'm a second year chemical engineering student, and I'm doing some courses over the summer but I've got about a month till I start.

I'm the meantime, am wondering if there are some online courses that I can take that would be good for industry or on a Cv.

I was considering taking a course on something like PIPE-FLO, but am open to any and all recommendations.

Trying to upskill myself by taking come cool/interesting ChemEng related courses.

Thanks in advance!

I suggest not be concentrating in ChemEng related courses like Pipe-Flo. If you need that for a job, you will be trained. Fill in the non-nerdy stuff. Take an acting class, learn to play a musical instrument, learn a second language, take a public speaking class, learn woodworking, learn to weld. These things make the difference in interviews when you find connection with your interviewer. Improve the other-than-engineering skills that make life more enjoyable and make others want to be around you.
